The Children’s Rights CLE Series is a monthly training program produced in partnership between Florida’s Children First, the Florida Legal Services Statewide Training Initiative, and the Public Interest Law Section (PILS) of The Florida Bar. This ongoing series brings together advocates, legal aid attorneys, pro bono lawyers, and other child-serving professionals to explore legal issues impacting children and youth across Florida.


Held on the third Wednesday of each month, each webinar provides practical insights into children’s rights advocacy, emerging legal issues, and strategies for representing and supporting vulnerable youth. Presenters include experienced practitioners, policy advocates, and subject matter experts who share both substantive legal updates and practical guidance for advocates working in the field.


Participants may register to attend the live webinar or sign up to receive the recording after the program. Each session offers an opportunity to deepen knowledge, connect with the statewide advocacy community, and stay current on developments affecting children and families.


This page includes upcoming webinar dates and registration links, as well as access to our YouTube playlist featuring recordings from previous Children’s Rights CLE webinars.
